FORCING THE BRAIN.
Address by DIR. Hammond on Prcscn
Methods OF Education.

Methods of Education.
DIR. William A. Hammond of New
York delivered an address before the
Nineteenth Century Club of that city
on Tuesday evening on brain Forcing
in the Education of Children" which
provoked an animated discussion.
Among other things DIR. Hammond
said:
"Wc live in the age of the school
master who forgcts that children be.
come mentally fatigucd from slight
causes even when they are interested
in them. An hour of intense mental
exertion will weary an adult more
than will an equal time of physical
labor. How much more then will II
wear out youngstcr There are laws
10 prevent the physical overtaXation of
children, but none against their mental
super work. From the very earliest
period after birth an infant mind Is In
pursuit of knowledge. The child's
first organs brought into play are the
perceptive organs, and his systematic
education should be conducted through
the perccptivc organs for the first ten
or twelve years OF life. The child who
does not look at n book until he is ten
or twelve years old will, in year, read
better than he who learned his alphabet
at three.
''To give a child a multiplicity of
studies at once, Is to ask man to look
alternately for ten minutes through u
microscope and a telescope. He'll
wear his eyes out. Grammar should
be banished from all schools except
from the senior year In a university
course No child ever learned to speak
good English by studying grammar.
| The study of ii is an ingenious device
to drive a poor little brain into early
| decrepitude. The only reason 1t does
no man harm is that no one really un-
| dcrstands its rules.
"A school child learns by memory.
Memory is not knowledge. Memory is
culture gained at the expense of
other faculties. Persons with good
memories possess little retention. | saw
an old gentleman few days ago who
could remember the days of his child.
hood, but who could not recollect what
he had for breakfast that day. The
text books take too much for granted
on the part of the pupil. Memory
passes for knowledge in the schools.
The pupil recites well-so does the
parrot. The men and women who
have made the most of themselves are
those who began to study after adult
life.
students of mature life study the
things themselves and not the dcscrip.
tion Of them. How much better would
IL be II there were more object lessonsl
What could child know of network
by DR.. JChnson's definition of it-'a
reiiculnied object with interstices be.
tween the intersections The even.
ing schools do infinitely more good
than the morning schools. Moreover,
there should be discrimination as to
the education of the different sexes.
1t is nj lsurd 10 give girls the saue cdu.
cation as boys. For instance, the at.
tempt 10 cram mathematics into a
girls brain Is alwnys mn absolute
failure. The days when childfen know
something, learn something will per.
haps return, but not in our day. Don t
